Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Worcestershire

Our nephew is purchasing a newly built flat in Worcestershire with a mortgage from Nationwide. His lawyer has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. What is this document - I have never come across this before?

The document is intended to provide information to the main parties involved in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Nationwide conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer when requested. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Nationwide conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

Having sold my house in Worcestershire last June yet the purchaser is texting me complaining that his solicitor is waiting to hear from mine. What should have happened now that I have sold?

Following your disposal your solicitor is committed to send the transfer documentation and all additional paperwork to the buyer’s lawyers. Where relevant, your solicitor must also confirm that the mortgage has been discharged to the purchasers lawyers. There are no post completion procedures specific conveyancing in Worcestershire.

What does a local search inform me regarding the house my wife and I buying in Worcestershire?

Worcestershire conveyancing often commences with the ordering local authority searches directly from your local Authority or via a personal search company for instance PSG The local search plays a central part in most Worcestershire conveyancing purchase; as long as you wish to avoid any nasty surprises after you move into your new home. The search will reveal data on, amongst other things, details on planning applications applicable to the property (whether granted or refused), building control history, any enforcement action, restrictions on permitted development, nearby road schemes, contaminated land and radon gas; in all a total of thirteen subject headings.

How does conveyancing in Worcestershire differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Worcestershire contact us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is finished. This is because developers in Worcestershire typically purchase the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Worcestershire or who has acted in the same development.

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Worcestershire. Before I get started I require certainty as to the remaining lease term.

Assuming the lease is registered - and almost all are in Worcestershire - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
